Marc-Andre Fleury threw his glove in front of his face on the bench Tuesday but he couldn’t hide his sheepish grin.
The goaltender knew scraping snow in front of his net against the Winnipeg Jets wasn’t allowed, but he wanted to try something once he was pulled with his team trailing 2-1 with 2:23 to go.
“I didn’t want to laugh because we were down, obviously. We still had a lot of time,” Fleury said. “(I’ve) never done that. I don’t know why. I was going to the bench and it was a close game.”
